This will not only inspire support and compliance, but ... view
• 9 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I am sure Kenyans were waiting with bated breath for the outcome of the Report of the two Committees this afternoon.

Because I have five minutes to contribute, let me raise some very substantial questions. I want to ask Members some questions. This is a very important Report which is on live coverage. All of us must live by the Standing Orders, so that ... view
• 9 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, I am sure Hon. Maanzo and Hon. Arati are listening to me. This is a Report which has already been debated out there. Hon. Kimunya raised a fundamental matter. He The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 9 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: cited Article 152 of the Constitution. Hon. Kimunya is a victim, a living example in this House of a minister who was impeached for nothing, but on very flimsy grounds. In the 10th Parliament, Hon. Kimunya was perceived to be one of the most arrogant ministers and because of that perception, he was impeached. So, when he talks about responsibility, he understands. The Constitution is very clear on how a minister is impeached and how he is removed from office. view
• 9 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, you gave a Communication that the grounds or threshold for removal of a Cabinet Secretary is so high that I am sure the only impeachment process that went through this House was when Hon Kaimenyi was being impeached and he survived by only 11 votes. view
• 9 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: The Report before the House is the property of the 349 Members. Nobody should be offended by it. From where I sit, I am at all times ready to support reports of committees. But there is one thing I have learnt, that never again are we going to form a joint committee. If this Report was by the Departmental Committee on Trade, Industry and Cooperatives, I am sure it would have been better. If it was done by the Departmental Committee on Agriculture and Livestock, it would have been better. We put together, I think, 38 Members. Sugar is like ... view
• 9 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: Minister Adan Mohammed is being indicted in the Report for a function of a corporate entity called the Kenya Bureau of Standards. The KEBS is a corporate entity that can sue and be sued. As we speak here, its CEO is in court. So, what are you telling us when you recommend that Adan Mohammed must be held responsible? view
• 9 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: The Cabinet Secretary, Rotich, acted on an Executive Order from the President. He acted on a Cabinet decision. He did not sit under a tree to formulate a Gazett e notice! He acted on an Executive Order given by the President. view
• 9 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: He acted on a Cabinet approval. He acted on a situational analysis that the country was facing drought. Let us use our resources and time to go and dig into Rotich and bring a substantive Motion to discuss the person of Rotich under Article 152(6) of the Constitution. But we should not indict ministers through the back door. This Report is trying to indict ministers through the back door. view
• 9 Aug 2018 in National Assembly: To finish, when somebody is told to take responsibility, the next thing the President will do, from tradition, is to tell him to step aside. We must protect, as legislators, the public and State officers who come from our constituencies. Everybody who works in the Executive and in the Judiciary comes from our constituencies. It was wrong. view
